Life Capture turns your phone into a time-lapse camera. You set how often you want the phone to take a picture anywhere from a few tenths of a second to several minutes. You then set how many frames you want the phone to capture. On the right you can watch an example video I took of a sunset filmed using the SE version on a w910i (the original avi has much better resolution than youtube shows). The application could also be used as a kind of cctv/spy camera. Click on the link below for more examples, full instructions and to download. Please note that this software will NOT work on Motorola phones.
Version 1.1.1 changes: The standard version of LifeCapture now has the option to increase the frame resolution, the ability to save to the Memory Card and some minor bug fixes (including Memory Card issues with some Sony Ericssons). The SE version has just had some minor bug fixes(including Memory Card issues with some Sony Ericssons).

Depending on your phone, you may also need: Tapeworm.jad For installation instructions, see Binary Clock.
Binary Clock:
This program will turn your phone into a binary clock. The program also allows you to switch between the binary display and a standard analogue display. Most modern Java enabled mobile phones should be able to run this program.
Download this file onto your PC: BinaryClock.jar (Right click and choose Save File)
Depending on your phone, you may also need: BinaryClock.jad See below for installation instructions.
How to use:
When the program runs, the binary clock will be displayed after a few seconds. Hold down either the LEFT of RIGHT buttons on your phone to swap between the binary clock and the analogue clock.
In the summer, most countries use some form of Daylight Savings Time. Different phone manufacturers implement this in different ways. If the time the Binary clock is displaying is an hour slow, you will need to manually add an hour to the time by holding the UP button for a few seconds. You should see the time advance by an hour and the letters DST appear at the top of the screen. This setting will be saved onto the phone so you will not need to repeat the process when you restart. Holding the DOWN button will return the phone to standard time. Sony Ericsson and Nokia users should not need to use this feature. Motorola users probably will need to. I have not tested other makes at this time.
Hold the FIRE button on the phone to display instructions.
Holding the BACK or Red Phone button should close down the program.
How to tell the time in binary?
Simply add up the value of the lit LEDs for each row: hour, min and sec. In the picture above, hour=2+1, min=16+4+2, sec=16+4+1, therefore the time is:3:22:21secs.
How to install:
As the software used by different phone manufacturers varies, these instructions are a rough guide only.
If your computer and phone are Bluetooth enabled, then use this to send the file to your phone. As soon as the phone receives the file, it should give you an option to open or install the program. Ignore any warnings about unrecognized file type or unsigned application.
If you cannot send via Bluetooth you will need to use a cable. Your phone should have come with some software to transfer files from your phone to your PC. Copy the BinaryClock.jar file into a folder on your phone.
On a Sony Ericsson for example, connect you phone, open the file manager, double click My Sony>Memory Stick>MSSEMC>Media Files>Other and copy the file there. Disconnect the phone, then select Main Menu>Media Album>Other and select BinaryClock.jar to install.
For a Motorola, connect your phone, on Phone Tools select: multimedia studio>filetransfer studio. Find where you saved BinaryClock.jar and copy it to the Programs folder on your phone. Disconnect the phone, go to Main Menu>Settings>File Manager>Application Downloads and then select BainaryClock.jar to intstall. Ignore the unsigned application warning.
For other phone makes, you should be able to do something similar to one of the above examples.
Note, on some phones you may need to download the .jad file as well as the .jar file and install from that.
